Santo Domingo.- The first programmed delegation of Chinese business leaders visits the Dominican Republic where they attend meetings with Dominican counterparts looking to obtain domestics products such as cocoa, bananas, tobacco, rum and mining products.

“This is a milestone for the Dominican Republic. Just a month ago, a Dominican mission visited China with president Danilo Medina and we could feel the affection and all the warmth of all the Chinese people, mainly its president Xi Jinping. We made a round of business there and today less than a month since we have the first trade mission organized by China’s Ministry of Foreign Affairs, visiting the country in very specific sectors and that is going to be replicated during 2019,”said Dominican Republic Export and Investment Center director (CEI-RD) Marius De León.

He said the authorities will adopt all needed strategies to place Dominican products in the Chinese markets. “We will comply with the country’s corresponds quota and the Dominican Republic is strengthening the productive axis to have export capacity and meet the demands of those markets.”
